    Buckle up, seniors! New driving regulations could target elderly licence holders

    What they need to address and do so nationally is make it harder to get your licence in the first place. There are many, many drivers on the road who clearly do not know how to drive properly or safely and don't know the road rules. If they addressed that to start with we might get somewhere...
